Is This Fiore’s Last Fight in Vegas? Plus, Farewell to Carr, and More Flight Delays
It’s Friday, y’all! And today, lead producer Sonja Cho Swanson is joined by newsletter editor Scott Dickensheets and guest Joey Lovato, multimedia editor at the Nevada Independent. We get into some of the week's capital-D drama: the uproar over Derek Carr’s departure from the Raiders; Michele Fiore’s last (or is it?) fight in Las Vegas before she gets judgey in Pahrump; and, in light of this week's cascading flight delays, what would we do with six hours to kill at Harry Reid International?
If you could keep ONE of the following in Las Vegas, which would it be: Derek Carr, Michele Fiore, or your next flight leaving on time? Let us know: Leave us a voicemail at 702-514-0719, or hit us up on social media! We’re @CityCastVegas on Twitter and Instagram.
